researchers at the nippon institute of technology have teamed up with a slew of design and robotics
companies to develop an educational humanoid robot they call e-nuvo. the design is a child-size bot
that is based off a previous robot design from 2004 called the walk. the nuvo is a larger version of walk,
allowing it to interact with students in more meaningful ways. the design intends to teach students
bipedal robot technology and its connection to math and physics. the design s 126cm tall and only
weighs 15 kg. it is battery powered and can stand and move its arms and legs. the robot has a ton of
internal technology that allow it to communicate with users and walk around automatically or through
remote control. it could be used as a teacher’s assistant and comes in handy for presentations since it
has a built-in projector.
